April - Around the Yard

After a long, cold winter April was a really spectacular month around the yard. We spent a ton of time in the yard enjoying few weeks of spring weather. It seemed we went from winter to summer in a matter of weeks. Ah, well, the joys of living in Florida.

Avery on an early spring morning out in the yard with her Daddy. She is playing in the lettuce rows. The lettuce was great this year, but those first few weeks of baby lettuce goes quickly and we end up with lots of leggy lettuce. Next year we need to harvest early and share the love.

What a silly girl! This was my attempt to get some portraits with the plants around the yard. Did turn out all that well. :-)

The peanut mulch pile is a great place to play.

Avery has a rose outside her window that looks really pitiful (IMO), but the flowers it produces are gorgeous.

This is Fergus aka Fergie, Furgerburger, Furliner. I love this little guy. I am totally surprised both our little orange furry friends are still around. They're always in the road and have no fear of dogs. I am trying not to get too attached, but this little guy has gotten to me. Avery likes the other one, Linus aka Liney-o-miney, Linferger. He is her little bud and they play together all the time.

Leif's favorite spot to play is the peanut mulch pile, too! :)

That rose is so pretty - what a great picture!
